The soul penetrates Xiaozhi and destroys Gou Hao at the beginning

The salty sea breeze, carrying the scent of grass and trees, swept over the reefs of Isle of Armor. The rich fragrance of flowers wafting from somewhere on Beehive Island was following the sea breeze, weaving an invisible net that drew Ash towards it.

Ash was told by his Aura that something was wrong with the giant tree in the center of Beehive Island because it was emitting a very strong sweet fragrance.

This giant tree is lush and leafy, with honeycomb-like depressions covering its thick trunk. Glistening honey beads slowly slide down the bark, refracting an amber halo in the sunlight.

The fragrance of the flowers was so strong it was almost viscous. Xiao Zhi raised his hand to push aside some drooping branches, and the moment his fingertips touched the trunk, the entire tree trembled violently.

"Buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz!"

In an instant, countless tiny points of light emerged from the honeycomb's depressions, converging into a buzzing swarm of bees that swirled into a cloud above the treetops.

Xiao Zhi was startled and immediately backed away. After creating some distance, he looked up and...

A yellow and black figure broke through the swarm of bees, hovering in mid-air with a sharp whooshing sound.

That was a robust queen bee.

As the bee wings behind it flapped, the scattered phosphorus powder condensed into shimmering particles of light in the air.

What caught Ash's attention was that its body was also wrapped in deep red Dynamax energy.

Immediately afterwards, a tremendous amount of energy suddenly erupted from the Queen Bee, and a deep red halo instantly expanded, enveloping the Queen Bee's entire body.

When the light faded, a gigantic queen bee, as large as a three-story building, appeared before Ash.

This is a level 80 Queen Bee Pokémon with the ability Overpower. When used on a Pokémon with this ability or when targeting the entire field, it loses 1 PP for each Pokémon with this ability. Friendly Pokémon are unaffected.

Ash was greatly shocked. He never expected that his trip to find some sticky honey would lead him to encounter a Dynamaxed Vile Queen.

And why can this queen bee also Dynamax? Could it be that this Beehive Island is also a Dynamax power point?

But at this point, Ash couldn't care less about anything else.

"It seems that we can't get the sticky honey without defeating it. In that case..."

"Pikachu, I choose you! Prepare for battle!"

"Pickup!"

The Queen Bee's biggest weakness is that she is four times weak to Rock-type Pokémon, but unfortunately, she doesn't have a Rock-type Pokémon with her at the moment.

But it doesn't matter, the Queen Bee, with her Bug/Flying attribute, has plenty of weaknesses.

Moreover, the queen bee's characteristic is a useless sense of oppression.

Its base stats are even worse; not only is the total low, but the distribution is also mediocre.

Both attack stats are very low, so there's practically no damage output.

However, now that it has doubled its HP after Dynamaxing, and with its high defense and special defense (both at over 100), it can still hold its own on the defensive end.

In order to finish the battle quickly, Ash sent out Pikachu.

The Gigantamax Bee Queen immediately roared, raised its tail, and released a huge white whirlwind, which was Gigantamax Fly.

This is a Dynamax Fly that comes from acrobatics. Since this Queen of the Bees is not holding any items, the base power of the move is 110, and this Dynamax move has a power of 140.

"Pikachu, use Extreme Speed ​​and charge into Max Air."

Pikachu then charged fearlessly toward the oncoming Max Airstream with lightning speed, dodging the attack with the speed boost from its Extreme Speed, and using the wind wall from Max Airstream as a springboard, it jumped to the front of Vile Queen.

"Very good, now's the time, Pikachu, unleash Thunderbolt!"

"Pika~chu!"

Pikachu immediately unleashed its full power, but unfortunately, a huge circular barrier suddenly appeared in front of the Queen Bee, completely blocking the incredibly effective Thunderbolt attack – it was Dynamax Guard.

This is a giant defensive barrier created from a defense command.

Ash had to admit that this Velkhana was quite clever, knowing to use Dynamax from the start to avoid being one-shotted.

She knew she should use the strongest Dynamax move, Max Airstream, but Vespiquen only had a Speed ​​stat of 40. What good would a Speed ​​boost do? Even if she increased her Speed ​​by one stage, she still wouldn't be as fast as the others.

If you increase your speed by three levels, it will still be very fast, but will your Queen Bee be able to unleash three consecutive Max Airstreams?

They also know how to use Max Guard to save their lives when things are going badly.

However, Ash and Pikachu are still dominating the pace of the battles, so it's not a big problem.

The Queen Bee began to gather immense Bug-type energy, transforming it into a swarm of green and blue butterflies that swept towards Pikachu. This move was none other than Dynamax Bug.

This is a gigantic insect-like creature that comes from an attack command, with a power of up to 130.

"Pikachu, charge forward, jump to dodge, and then use Iron Tail."

Pikachu charged at the Bee Queen once more, using the energy butterflies as springboards to leap higher and higher, dodging the attacks and regaining its position above the Bee Queen.

Descending from the sky, it concentrated steel-type energy into its tail, unleashing a massive slash disguised as an iron tail, which slammed into the Bee Queen's head.

While causing it a great deal of damage, it also made the queen bee's head buzz.

Only because her HP doubled after Dynamaxing did Queen Bee successfully withstand the attack and not fall down.

At the same time, the Queen Bee's Dynamax transformation ended, and she reverted to her original form.

But the Queen Bee had no intention of giving up and immediately used her resurrection ability.

"Give it the final blow, Pikachu, unleash Thunderbolt!"

Before the Queen Bee could even reach Pikachu, Pikachu's golden electric current had already struck it. The Queen Bee suffered from the disadvantage of having a longer reach than a shorter one.

This move was extremely effective, directly shocking the queen bee until she screamed and black smoke billowed from her body.

Without the HP doubling effect, the Queen Bee couldn't withstand the attack and was easily killed by this move.

Upon seeing their leader killed, the other three bees scattered and fled, each going their own way in the face of disaster.

The impact of the battle also caused the sticky honey to fall from the trees.

Ash walked over, picked it up, and saw that it was a few honey cubes, which were Max Sweet.

Max Sweet is the honey produced by the Gigantamax Bee Queen.

Simply adding it to Max Soup will make the soup taste much milder, so that even Urshifu practitioners who dislike bitterness can enjoy the bittersweet Max Soup.

It also has the same effect as Vitality Block.

It can revive a Pokémon that has lost its ability to battle from a stunned state and restore all of its HP.

The store sells it for 2000 yen for an extremely sweet honey block.

You should know that you can't buy Vitality Cubes in stores.
